    Default Mildew on Seats


    Anyone know a sure fire way of getting rid of it? I've tried a mild bleach solution but it didn't work very well.

    mildew but not the stain left for a long period i have used pure bleach on some . as far as armoall it is just a sunblocker and a petroliam product thet will make the vinyal stiff . vnyal bed cover mfg. will void warenty if you use armoall on it .dry them off after they git wet or cover them with a cover that can breath or vent the boat so it will not sweat.
    retired and now i will always fish

    Ace hardware carries a product called X14 and for sure it will get it off.

    Will any of these hurt the seats?

    Earl I was always told that bleach would rot the thread on the seats. I have always used some on seats and tried to keep off the thread. I use the X14 that bama3302 talked about.

    Justfish, I had always heard the same thing about bleach. I am going to try the Tilex and if they eat up my seats I am going to send the bill to GOLFPRO!

    Earl: I assume no liability in the act of you using chemicals in any way!!! Hey jack...powdered creamer and sugar mixture could go wrong too!!!! Hahaha...seriously....I've tried it all....been doing the Tilex thing 1x a year for the last 5 I bet...no problems here!!! Spray...wait...hit Em with a 40 deg nozzle pressure washer ...bam! New again! I do treat them right away after that though...get a good uv protector..
